The next generation of the very successful Treo 600, the Treo 650 adds several key improvements that address the needs of road warriors. Improvements in technology since the release of the 600 over a year ago have also boosted its value. Sprint was the first US carrier that had the Palm Treo 650, but later GSM versions for Cingular, AT&T Wireless as well as an unlocked version for use with all carriers were released early Feb. 2006.The Treo 650 is both a cell phone and a full-featured Palm OS PDA. It will be the main rival of the Apple iPhone. The Sprint version runs on their CDMA network. The Verizon version, released on May 11, 2005 also supports 1xRTT for data. All different types of GSM are quad band 850/900/1800/1900MHz world phones with GPRS and EDGE for data. This is a great phone with great battery life and will keep you organized.
